Autosiril V1 Released

posted by nix./site


After many years of its' development, Siril has finally uncovered one of his top secret projects, Autosiril. With its' help, it's possible to convert songs from MIDI to a Vortex Tracker Improved text file and then to a ProTracker 3 module (pt3), for the use on the real hardware. For now, Autosiril relies on the command-line interface, which means it may take a while to learn its' features.

It's also highly recommended to edit the module after it's converted because the results may not sound perfect at all. :)

Download it here. See the full article for the instruction manual in English.

New MP3 Album of Micromusic/Chiptunes: ZX81 and Two YM2149 Chips

posted by news


Some info about the album from Yerzmyey below:

OK dudez, I don't release new stuff often. But after 2 years of silence I decided to make something new - and something a little bit different. ;)

This is a collection of songs made on ZX81 with TurboSound for ZX81 (two ZonX interfaces - on different ports - to play simultaneously 6 channels).
All has been written on real ZX81 machine - NO EMULATORS have been USED.
All titles are somehow related with ZX81 machine. ;)

The album is for fans of YM2149 and for AY fans.

Tracklist:
01. Yerzmyey - ZX81
02. Yerzmyey - New Line
03. Yerzmyey - UrsULA
04. Yerzmyey - Motherboard Circuit ISSUE ONE
05. Yerzmyey - Break Space
06. Yerzmyey - Earport
07. Yerzmyey - Touch sense

TOTAL TIME: 29:39 min.

Full quality (more/less) 3-pages cover-art to download:

ZX81 Turbosound Song Released

posted by news


With a huge delay (sorry!) i post really interesting music news from Yerzmyey:

And yessss - I finished it today.

So, this is another song entirely made on ZX81 and ZX81 only - a UK monochrome computer from 1981.

MP3 recorded from real hardware.

This is a song for TurboSound (2 x AY).
As I was making it entirely on ZX81, I wasn't able to constantly check out how both halfs of the song work together, so actually the second AY gives only some "deeper" sound this time, nothing more.

After all, I think it's a really decent sound, pretty powerful with 2 YMs/AYs.

PS: Thx a lot for all the soft/hardware to: Sasha2000, SirMorris, Andy Rea and Moggy (for software-ports for more stupid users like me).

Greetzzz, Yerzmyey/AY-RIDERS.

1tracker v0.11

posted by Vinnny


Shiru выпустил новый трекерный редактор 1tracker под Windows. Как можно понять из названия - он сделан для 1-битной музыки Спектрума. Однако уникальность проекта в другом. По сути это попытка сделать графический интерфейс для всех 1-битных движков, которых расплодилось уже достаточное количество. Кстати, возможности редактора не ограничиваются только 1-битной музыкой, можно через соответствующие модули добавить поддержку практически любого формата музыки.
